| The JEDEC Solid State Technology Association (Once known as the
Joint Electron Device Engineering Council), is the semiconductor
engineering standardization body of the Electronic Industries
Alliance (EIA), a trade association that represents all areas of
the electronics industry.
JEDEC was originally created in 1960 as a joint activity between
EIA an NEMA, to cover the standardization of discrete semiconductor
devices and later expanded in 1970 to include integrated
circuits.
JEDEC does its work through its 48 committees/subcommittees that
are overseen by the JEDEC Board of Directors. Presently there are
about 300 member companies in JEDEC including both manufacturers
and users of semiconductor components and others allied to the
field.
